Your local ADHD assessment options in Manchester
In Greater Manchester, the NHS Right to Choose route for ADHD assessment has effectively stalled. Clinical Partners, a major Right to Choose provider, has confirmed it reached the end of the appointments funded by Greater Manchester ICB for this financial year, and cannot offer new NHS booking dates until further funding is agreed. Referrals remain open, but people are being added to a waiting list with no confirmed date. On the standard NHS pathway, waits commonly run to several years. For many people in Manchester, a private assessment is now the realistic route to being seen sooner.
